IFC cuts into group budget requests
By STEPHEN KNIGHT
Of th* Emerald
A tight-fisted Incidental Fee
Committee cut into almost every
budget request during the first
1981 budget hearings Monday
and Tuesday nights.
IFC members questioned
where every dollar allocated
was going and how much of the
student body would benefit from
the funding.
One issue that deadlocked
the six committee members
Monday night was whether to
allocate $1,700 requested for
publicity by the Interfraternity
Council.
University fraternities use
pamphlets to inform incoming
male students about fraternity
life on campus.
IFC chairer Jon Neiderbach
suggested allocating only $100
for the group's publicity He said
it was wasteful to send bro
chures to every incoming male
student.
But IFC member Kathy
Stebner said the money is es
sential because all prospective
"Greeks'1 need to be informed
about fraternity life prior to rush
week.
' There would be no Greek
system without the brochures,”
Stebner said
Neiderbach’s proposal failed
by a 3-3 vote The IFC com
promised 4-2 to give the council
$1,200 for advertising.

students, also was given $3,293
for other expenses.
Tuesday night, the committee
cut money requests of the cam
pus YWCA, the Hawaii Club and
the Gerontology Association.
The YWCA requested $2,676
but received only $1,814. Most
of the cuts came from funds
requested for a Women’s
Center the YWCA is trying to
start this year.
Despite the cuts, ASUO Pres.
Dave Eaton said after the meet
ing that he will veto this appro
priation because student fees
shouldn’t be used to fund
planned projects may later
prove ineffective.
The Hawaii Club requested
$2,624, but received only $100
after Chris Moore, ASUO finan
cial vice president, said the club
frequently has not spent all the
money allocated for its yearly
luau.
However, the committee said
the club is free to return later
this year if it needs more money
for its projects.
The Gerontology Association
requested $3,103 but received
only $1,451 after some commit
tee members questioned the
need for its job placement ser
vices.
In other Monday night busi
ness, the IFC halved the travel
budget for the Community Ser
vice and Public Affairs Graduate
Students’ Organization to $200
after committee members said

The CSPA was left with $681

The Women’s Referral and

ed $3,802 for the next year.
The University Comptrollers
were allotted $5,482 and the
Department of Educational
Policy Management Graduate
Student Organization saw their
yearly $590 request cut to $237.
On Tuesday night, the com
mittee gave Women in Com
munications, Inc., $731 — al
most $60 less than the group
requested.
The IFC also cut University
Women in Transition s child
care budget from $230 to $100.
IFC chairer Jon Neiderbach
argued that childcare was
necessary for UWIT members —
who are often single parents —
to attend group functions, but
other committee members ar
gued that it is only a secondary
service.
Despite the cuts, Eaton said
he would veto this appropriation
because the group has not
spent most of its childcare
money for the past two years,
saying this is proof that UWIT
doesn’t need the appropriation.
UWIT’s 1981 budget will be
$2,166.
Publish, not perish
Untenured faculty win grants
By MARIAN GREEN
Ol the Emerald
Untenured professors may find a solution to
the “publish or perish” problem through summer
research grants awarded by the Faculty Research
Award Program.
For many untenured professors, job security
sometimes hinges on getting research published.
The summer grant program offers grants only to
assistant professors or untenured associate
professors, according to Fred Wilhelm, assistant
dean of the graduate school, which coordinates
the program.
“Although we're not well known like the Ford
Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation, our
summer program is reserved to assistant unten
ured associate professors and assistant profes
sors to give them a start in pursuing research
interests.”
Wilhelm says the awards are meant to help
untenured professors gain the recognition
needed for tenure.
"Young people are really behind the eight
ball,” he says. “They’re thrown into a class and
get bogged down.”
Consequently, some professors never find
the time or money to get research done, Wilhelm
adds.
In addition, the program helps maintain the
University’s reputation as a research institution,
he says.
Wilhelm says professors tell him that re
search and teaching go “hand-in-hand.”
“It's very difficult to teach well unless you’re
doing research” because professors need to be
up-to-date on their teaching area, he says.
The program offers $2,500 stipends in lieu of
summer-term salaries to untenured or assistant
professors for the research of their choice.
Last summer, one anthropology professor
researched the ceremonial structures of Easter
Island, an architecture professor studied a par
ticular architect’s work in Michigan, and one
sociology professor’s work led to a grant proposal
to the National Institute of Mental Health, Wilhelm
recalls.
Professors who participate in the program
need only submit a one-page typewritten report
that explains the kind of research done, Wilhelm
says.
The program is funded through state appro
priations.
"They’re probably the only hard state dollars
available for faculty research,” Wilhelm says.
“Most (funding) comes from federal grants."
Wilhelm estimates 10 grants totaling about
$25,000 will be awarded this year, and 80 to 100
professors are expected to apply.
